TO SETUP
Legato Mode | Slides | Probability:
If it’s not possible to play a legato articulation like a hammer on or a pull off,
because you setup “ MAx RANGE”, “MAx coNSEcUtIVE” or “MAx tIME
DIffERENcE” in a way that limits those articulations, a slide is played
instead if you changed the “ Legato <> Range” knob to slide. For example: if
you play E2 followed by G2 and you set “ Max Range” for hammer ons to 2,
a slide up will be played instead. The “ Probability” settings allows you to
setup how often a slide is randomly played. If no slide is played, the start
articulation is used instead.
LEGAto MoDE | tRANSItIoN
The transition parameters allow you to setup the way the legato engine is
connected to the legato samples for each articulation ( Hammer ons, Pull
offs, Slide 1 fret and Slide 2 frets). “By Legato AI” means that an
articulation is automatically selected by the legato logic. “ By Keyswitch”
means that you activated an articulation via keyswitch.
transition | x-fade:
The “
fade In” parameter allows you to setup how much the new note is
crossfaded with the last note. Lower values add more attack, higher values
result in a smoother transition.
transition | time | LoVel
transition | time | HiVel:
The “
time” parameter allows you to setup how much of the transition
portion in the sample is played. Lower values result in a more direct
response, while higher values will add more of a glide effect. You can setup
different values for notes played with low velocity and for notes played with
high velocity.
Legato | transient:
With the “
transient” setting you can smoothen a transition (an example
would be a hammer on to a pull off) or you can add more attack. Lower
attack settings will result in a smoother sound while higher attack settings
will add more attack. The sustain parameter allows you to extend or shorten
the sustain phase of the new note in a transition.

Legato | Max Range:
Setup the maximum range in which hammer ons, pull offs or slides are
played here. If you play E2 followed by F#2 on the lowest string and you
setup the max range for a hammer on to 1, the hammer on won’t be played
in because the new note is 2 frets away from the last note.

• Pull Offs
• Slides
Legato | Max consecutive:
Setup the maximum number of hammer ons, pull offs or slides than can be
played in a row here. If you set ‘ Max consecutive’ for hammer ons to 1 and
you play E2 followed by F2 and F#2, only F2 will trigger a hammer on and
F#2 will be played with the start articulation instead.
• Hammer Ons
• Pull Offs
• Slides
Legato | Max time Difference:
Setup the maximum time difference in which hammer ons, pull offs or slides
can be played here. If you set the “ Max time Difference” for hammer ons to
500ms and you play E2 followed by F2 and you play F2 in less than 500ms,
a hammer on will be played. If you play F2 after 500ms it will be played
with the start articulation instead.

transition | x-fade:
The “
fade In” parameter allows you to setup a per string offset of how
much the new note is crossfaded with the last note. Lower values add more
attack, higher values result in a smoother transition.
transition | x-fade:
The “
Sample Start” parameter allows you to setup a sample start offset per
string. Lower values result in more attack, higher values will cut away more
of the attack portion of the sample.
